FKA Twigs sports a bondage-style choker and suspender belt as she puts on an impassioned performance at Glastonbury

She was a back-up dancer for the likes of Kylie Minogue and Jessie J before finding fame in her own right.
And FKA Twigs certainly seized her time to shine with both hands when she performed at Glastonbury Festival in Pilton, Somerset, on Sunday.
The 27-year-old singer put on an impassioned performance as belted out the likes of Video Girl and Glass And Patron on the West Holts Stage at Worthy Farm.

The natural beauty paraded her flexible frame in a sheer skater dress with sequinned detailing which she teamed with a pair of gold, diamante high-waist briefs and a suspender belt.
She polished off the outfit with a sheer pearlescent overlay and a gold bondage-style choker.
The British hitmaker wore her raven hair in tight curls, with a hint of gold weaved into the cornrows on the left-hand side of her head.
She accessorised her look with gold drop earrings and a septum ring, rounding off her festival get-up with smokey eyes and bold red lips.

Other big acts to take to the stage at the Somerset-based festival on Sunday included Lionel Richie, who made the most in the afternoon Legends slot filled by Dolly Parton in 2014 singing his classic hits Easy Like Sunday Morning, Hello and All Night Long.

She was joined on stage by the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan leader, who received a rendition of Happy Birthday to mark his 80 birthday next month.
Paul Weller and alt-J performed afterwards followed by The Who, who headlined the final night of festivities.

Lupita Nyong'o and Eva Longoria shine in demure dresses to meet the Dalai Lama

Lupita Nyong'o and Eva Longoria shine in demure dresses to meet the Dalai Lama... but Joanna Krupa can't resist a plunging neckline



It is a true honour to get to meet the Dalai Lama, so a host of celebrities jumped at the chance to attend a Q&A with him on Wednesday. Most of the stars opted for appropriately demure looks for the event, which was hosted by Ann Curry at the California Science Center in Los Angeles.
Lupita Nyong’o looked particularly sensational in a bold printed dress in striking blue and pink hues.

The 12 Years A Slave star coordinated her accessories with a pink clutch bag and cobalt blue shoes that perfectly matched the shaded of her frock.
The 30-year-old, who is hoping to take home a Best Supporting Actress Oscar this weekend, may be new to Hollywood but she has quickly become known as one of the best dressed stars around.
Eva Longoria followed Lupita’s suit and picked an elegant cream dress by Philosophy Di Natalie Ratabesi.

The frock consisted of a simple top with a pretty pleated skirt, and the former Desperate Housewives star teamed it with matching court shoes.
Eva opted to forgo any other accessories and swept her fringed brunette locks into a ponytail to complete her look.
The 38-year-old shared a photo of herself meeting the Dalai Lama on her WhoSay page, in which His Holiness has his hands on her cheeks while she places her own hands on top of his.

‘There's nothing more contagious than the @DalaiLama's laugh! What an honor to be with His Holiness today!’ the actress wrote alongside the snapshot.
One person who apparently didn’t get the memo to wear something modest was Joanna Krupa.
The Real Housewives Of Miami star is more often than not spotted in a bikini so perhaps it’s no surprise that she couldn’t resist showing some skin.
Joanna, 34, picked a dusty pink gown which was Grecian inspired and while it fell to the floor, it also boasted a plunging neckline.

The Polish model had spent a long time planning her outfit for the discussion, and tweeted over the weekend: ‘Over the moon excited I get to meet the Dalai Lama next week w my pal @SeanLourdes !!!!!! What do I wear?! Lol.’
Joanna then documented the event via her Twitter and Instagram pages, sharing a snap of herself en route to the venue and posting a picture of the stage during the Q&A.
‘Wish everyone had the same views as the Dalai Lama. Our world would b filled w kindness and compassion not hate and jealousy,’ Joanna thoughtfully wrote.

Nikki Reed wore a cream satin shift dress with black collar and trim, and Malin Akerman sported a black blouse tucked into a matching leather skirt.
Also in attendance was Matt Goss, who looked extremely dapper in a grey plaid suit, matching skinny tie and white shirt.
